The New York Yankees‘ estimated payroll for the 2020 season is expected to be upwards of $240,000,000+, which will likely be the highest in baseball. With new and exciting names joining the club, like Gerrit Cole, one of the more underrated signings has to be retaining Brett Gardner. When NYY resigned Gardner, for $12,500,000 this next season, some fans were livid and disappointed in how management decided to spend some of the money. People were upset over the loyalty toward Gardner and lack-thereof toward Betances. In this article, I plan to discuss how Gardner was a “must-have” and how his contract is an excellent value.
